I stood there in the store with the liquid wax in one hand, spray in the other. I chose the liquid because it seemed the more traditional application of the two and I simply couldn't wrap my head around the bizzare idea of spraying ceramic wax over a wet surface. I wish i had seen your video beforehand. I'm really surprised how well the spray works! I'll definitely have to go back for the spray and try the layered effect. Thanks for testing this out for us!

@davidmcpa 2 года назад

Been using the Hybrid Ceramic Spray Wax on my 2001 Commodore and it's been great, lasts a while and it's easy to put on.

The only thing that bothers me about these products is that I've heard countless people tell me their car is "ceramic coated" when they use these products. Like, is it actually "ceramic coated"? To me, it downplays the superiority of a real ceramic coating applied after a paint correction. Anyone else hear this and what do you think?

@CarCraftAutoDetailing 4 года назад

Yes, the real issue is that there is no real standard as to what brands can call or claim about products and no real repercussions to misleading information, but it’s a tricky thing to regulate.

@@CarCraftAutoDetailing I completely agree. I figured they could maybe use SiO2 content to regulate what classifies an actual ceramic coating. But these companies use .05% SiO2 and call it ceramic lol. So misleading indeed. Thanks for the reply.

@jakubhladil5340 27 дней назад

It might not be the best most effective product out there but the system works great together and is super easy to use. Just the green detailer spray can be used as a full way after wash. I covered it and it beads like crazy.

@HeavyProfessor 4 года назад

I did a full stripping with meguiar's iron remover (it is alcohol-based, so I assume it removed any residual waxes). Then I used their clay bar and regular quick detailer to clay the paint. Then I did a paint correction with Meguiar's liquid compound and then ultimate polish using their dual-action polisher. Then I applied their ultimate liquid wax, which I believe is a sealent, using the DA polisher. Then I applied a coat of the hybrid ceramic liquid wax with the DA, letting it cure overnight. Then I applied two hand coatings of the hybrid ceramic liquid wax, letting each cure overnight before applying the next. And now, whenever I rinse my car with the power washer, I rinse, spray on a few sprays of the hybrid ceramic spray wax on each panel, and rinse again. Then dry with a microfiber drying towel. It seems this method has provided perpetual protection and insane hydrophobicity. It has been about three months, and their is no change at all to the water behavior or gloss level. Given your findings, when I have time, I will apply a coating of the hybrid ceramic spray by hand when the car is completely dry. I believe that will carry me through the winter. The winter road conditions in NY are very harsh--tons of salt, slush, a lot of rain also in the winters here. That will be the true test, as I will not be applying any fresh dry coats during the winter since it will be too cold, and I won't have time (have to work 70 hours per week and will not have any real free time during daylight hours). I checked with Meguiar's, and they say that the hybrid ceramic products can be used as top coats over their ultimate liquid wax and pretty much any other product. They recommended against using any other products on top of the hybrids, as well, stating it would disrupt the water behavior of the hybrids.

@kevinroark5815 Год назад

Perfect, thanks for researching all that. I was confused. Can I use wax or polish after using Hybrid wax or do I have to use it before or not at all? I think your findings answer all that

What a treat! I just recently purchased these products to test them on my vehicles, Already started hoarding the detailer spray as they are in high demand and cheaper than the turtle wax ceramic alternatives. One thing though, I used to buy Meguiar's xpress wax and dilute it 1:1 with Meguiar's last touch, the hybrid detailer mixed with last touch leaves lots of streaking and almost feels greasy, ended up tossing that bottle. If you ever get your hands on the turtle was ceramic stuff, le us know which you think is best. Glad to see you are still safe and putting out these insanely high quality videos!

I really like your overlay and PIP information that helps clearly demonstrate what you and products are doing.👍🏼 First in class. The results are what I see on my current daily, except I switched out the Meg's liquid wax with Turtle's Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Polish and Wax applied with a DA Finishing Polish Foam pad. Topped this after 24 hours with dry application of Meg's HWC and then Meg's HCD 24hours again. Nice relaxed weekend job. It is performing so well I started feeling guilty snow foaming weekly as a waste of set up time and product. The late heavy rains are doing a self cleaning job. In all honesty, a standard garden hose nozzle rinse now, followed by a quick 2bucket Meg's Ultimate Wash and Wax weekly, with the HCD drying as an aid is giving stunning deep shine and visual protection. Brilliant for these cheaper OTC option products. Keep up your great tutorials.

@hitardo 3 года назад

Meguiar's, in my country (Portugal), is very expensive. Even on Amazon (from Spain) it is expensive. Local retailers increase the price over Amazon on 20% - which is even more expensive. The brand which I found to be GREAT value for money is NextZett (formely EinsZett). But, they have not come out with a ceramic solution. GTechniq has some good products, as well as Yum Car Care. I have not tried anything from Bilt Hambert, but I am quite anxious to try it out. But Turtle Wax gets the cake. For value for money, the Turtle Wax 53142 Hybrid Dry & Shine (Rinse Wax) is the best one I have ever tried. Simple application: just spray it, and rinse over. The shine is great, and the slickness is very good. The price is just awesome! The Turtle Wax 53139 Hybrid Sealant Spray (Hydrophobic Wax) is also very good, and with an acceptable price. I personally got average results, but I admit my paint was not fully ready to take the product. The Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic Line (both the Turtle Wax 53342 Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Wax Spray, and Turtle Wax 53339 Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Wet Spray) is a little more expensive - but acceptable. The Black focused ones are VERY expensive, in my opinion - but maybe it is because they are quite recent. I bought the two Ceramic ones, but have not tested them.

Since my Nissan was paint sealed protected aready, I used the detalier for now. I used the spray wax on my 2011 Kia Sorento..... and the paint came back life for a twelve year old vehicle. I paid just under $30.00 (🇨🇦)each for both bottles. It's $15-$17 in the U.S. Crazy price difference from these to Australia. Cheers mate...

@Zeek800 2 месяца назад

The key feature with the Mequires products is how easy they are to apply. I can’t comment on durability because I have only just started using the Hybrid Spray Ceramic. In the few weeks I would have to compare it against the other product I have used on one of our vehicles. The Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic was applied last Summer. I prepared the vehicle’s surface by spray foaming it, then clay barring it, followed by a wash, then a compound then polishing and a coat of lightly applied TW Hybrid Ceramic. 24 hours later I rinsed off 5he vehicle ( it hadn’t been driven and was under a carport ) to remove any dust and applied a 2nd coating. With a simple foaming a wash and dry, the vehicle looked great until I reapplied it he TW again this Spring following 5he same procedures. Lots of work but amazing results. The rain beaded amazingly for over 8 months. The shine didn’t diminish much if at all ( it still looked better after the winter than the vehicle looked without the TW step in the past. I’d have to say the Mequires Hybrid Ceramic spray looks pretty much as good as the TW ( 2-3 weeks so far ) and after an overnight rain and driving 50-80 km/hr. the water beads just slid easily off the body panels. I have two coats of the Megs Spray, the 1st applied semi dry and 5he second applied after a wash and rinse but rubbed onto the surface, rinsed and then dried. It’s late July so we’ll see how it holds up this winter. I will reapply again every other wash just because it’s so quick and easy. By the way you posted the prices, in Australian dollars??? Here in Canada, I paid $18 for the Meg. Hybrid ceramic spray. You guys are getting ripped off! I don’t think the Canadian dollar is any higher than the Aussie buck.

I wasn't sure where the other two fell in the product line. I use the blue bottle as a top up after washing. After a hand wash and rinse I walk around the car and put a single spray into the pressure washer stream per area/large panel. Then walk back around to rinse from top down. The initial dry application has a huge effect on appearance. I like it because it's just so easy to top up and takes so little actual product to get the job done.

Quite easy to find here in France, at about 20 Euros, but well worth it because the bottle lasts quite a long time. I applied it on a well prepared dry surface, buffed it and added a second coat after an hour curing. Left it to cure overnight before exposing the car to the exterior elements. Seems to hold quite well in terme of longevity, and really beads well. As soon as it shows signs of weakness, just spray some on a washed wet car, spread it lightly with a microfiber, pressure rinse it, dry it, and you're good to go. You get another six months of perfect beading.

Have and Would you do it on a boat or do you know somebody who have done it?

@CarCraftAutoDetailing 3 года назад

I really have no experience trying them on a boat, the gel coat won’t be an issue, but the salt water for extended periods will be the real test. The prep work before applying them is going to be really important, so you will have a far better and lasting result if the boat is given a thorough decontamination wash and the gel coat is polished before hand (just the one time) and also given a good IPA (isopropyl alcohol) wipe down immediately before you apply them. Personally I’d also suggest just doing two coats of the Hybrid Ceramic Liquid wax rather than layering all three, as the HCW is really the product of the three that is going to have the best durability and longevity chance.

Hi Sandro. I have used the liquid form (not the spray wax) to test it on my new car which I bought on 12/27/2019. I prepared it with proper decontamination of the paint and expected it to last several months, at least 3, and it only lasted halfway even after following their instructions. Then, I purchased Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic and even after we had in the island the highest Saharian dust record of 305 when the highest recorded was several years ago of 154, I still haven't washed it for 6 months and still can feel the protection and gloss is also still seen because the rain has washed away dirt and dust and still beads like crazy. I was very disappointed with this Meguiars since I use a lot Meguiars D106, D116 and D143 with my customers, besides some of their polish and compound products because they are very accessible in price, available in most vehicle stores and perform very well. Thanks for your review. Xoxo from Puerto Rico 👍🇵🇷

@jackdawson3276 Год назад

Key is frequency. I am not going to apply liquid wax every time I wash. However, I WILL use the spray and rinse technique every single time I wash. I do agree, you should apply the first coat of the hybrid spray wax on a dry car. I used a damp towel then buff with a dry one. I apply the spray hybrid wax on a dry car every 6 months as a refresher. Maguiars says its critical to do the rinse application or at least rinse the car again after a dry application. Reason is the carrying agents are hydrophilic and need to be rinsed away. I wash my car every 2 weeks in the summer and once a month in the winter (since its garaged more) The performance of the product is amazing since its so so so easy to apply it very often. So in closing, apply the spray in a dry car once every 6 months and use the spray and rinse technique everytime you wash!

Love the review sandro as always. I have been using hybrid ceramix wax for roughly 8 months on 2 vehicles (mine and my partners). After many applications i found that applying onto dry paint was definatly the best option. As it would last longer than just spraying onto wet paint and wiping it off. I find though when the time comes to wash both cars (usually about 2-3 weeks) the hydrophobic properties are almost completely gone. Untill i do the recomended spray on and rinse off at the end of my wash, then they come back. As of my last wash i did a complete decontamination of my partners car and a re application onto dry paint. Then i topped it with the ceramic detailer. I found that this time around when i washed the car today it still had 70-80% of the hydrophobic properties still present which i was pleased with. I just find that by itself the hybrid ceramic wax for an every day driven car that doesnt get much cover and is 90% exposed to the elements the real world resistance isnt much chop.

I tried out the liquid wax. I choose to apply with a mini machine polisher and it was so easy to apply and buff. It felt like i was doing something wrong. I applied it outside on a hot day also, its nice when its so easy to buff.

@MRrandory 3 года назад

I’ve been using the Spray wax as you recommended since your first video of it. And I have also received the same results with your findings of the liquid wax. Cheers

@CarCraftAutoDetailing 3 года назад

I think the purpose for applying the Spray Wax to wet car, then rimsing is for speed, less effort, less time & convenience... May Cost a bit more in product, if apply / liberally apply more of the Spray wax before rinsing, but speed, less time & less effort & convenience is worth it...

megs hcw spray is the best product out right now. I do recommend two to three base coats of the liquid version first on top of ultimate liquid wax sealent. Then spray and rinse with the hcw at each wash. Makes true touchless wash possible without needing any soap. no degredation of gloss or water behavior after 4 months...still perfect. megs did a fantastic job. However, I dont really like the detailer. I find it leaves streaks. I may not be applying it properly, not sure.

@jonnybravo3055 3 года назад

I found Blue hybrid ceramic spray was lasted 2 months. I hardly used any and probably takes 10 minutes to do the car. This was applied to a none prept car with no clay bar used. I just cleaned it and I really like the product. I do clean my car twice a week though.

@ST46YO 2 года назад

Excellent review. I love the ceramic spray wax too, will invest into the ceramic quick detailed for top up cleans. Currently using a quick detailed that takes me 10 minutes to clean car, makes sense to use the ceramic version to maintain the ceramic like finish with investing 30 minutes into applying the liquid spray

@gimax4689 2 года назад

Would you recommend applying 2 coats of the Meg's Hybrid Spray wax ( 24 hours gap) for better protection ? I ve seen Turtle Wax recommending two coats for their hybrid spray wax. Thank you !

@CarCraftAutoDetailing 2 года назад

Yes absolutely, a second layer should help improve durability, looks and overall performance.

@Minwol Год назад

How much does each product last? Will the liquid wax have many more applications than the spray wax? That might swing the value of them

@CarCraftAutoDetailing Год назад

I think you’d be using a similar amount with both.

Hi, does it make any significant difference in gloss and repellency if I apply two layers of Meguiar's liquid hybrid ceramic wax? Thank you

@CarCraftAutoDetailing 2 года назад

The first layer is what always creates the best bond and performance, a second layer will usually just improved on it but not do quite as much as the primary layer.

Hi Sandro, can you make a review of the Extreme Top Coat Sealant with Carnauba by the CG? Wud be much appreciated. Cheers!

@flemmingjensen3202 3 года назад

I can: It looks allright, gives some gloss, is decent to apply and remove and lasts around three months. That said, many SiO2 spray sealants seem to perform better and are easier to use.

@MrMachineoperator 2 года назад

You are great. Thanks for this video clip especially the comparison

@sheepstardetail 4 года назад

Great video Sandro, but in my testing HCLW actually has better real world durability. When you put down the spray bottle and start putting up the miles, you'll see a lot of the "chemical resistant" products are actually not as durable as some products that normally fail those tests. I have a video on my channel showing how HCLW compares to Seal N Shine after 2.5 months through spring and summer, and even weaker products like CMX stood up better than some other products that win chemical test challenges.

@CarCraftAutoDetailing 4 года назад

Yes there is always variables to consider but you also have to accept that how you personally applying it and where and how you’re cars are maintained is going to vary compared to almost everyone else. So no one test or experience with a product is ever definitive, but I appreciate you sharing you’re experience with it.

@sheepstardetail 4 года назад

Car Craft Auto Detailing My point is that it almost never rains carpet multi x, otherwise I’d put out a bucket.

@CarCraftAutoDetailing 4 года назад

Yes I understand, and my point is that no one is going to replicate you’re specific method, environment and circumstances either. Every product on the market (or at least the good ones) use some form of resistance testing to predict durability and other characteristics, and although no method is perfect all my testing has shown that the products that do hold up better in my tests also last longer on my and my customers cars in real world testing - that’s my correlation and rational which has been quite consistent.

@sheepstardetail 4 года назад

Car Craft Auto Detailing I understand why people use chemicals, and I commend you and waxmode for using consistent testing between products. However, I’ve tested multiple products at once on the same car in the same weather and the ones that fail under normal, reasonable chemical testing lasts longer than the kings of chemical resistance. It’s quite clear that companies are now using chemical testing in their product development because most modern products like HCW and even the detailer have excellent resistance. It’s a tangible selling point or demonstration for a company and something most of RU-vid watchers are expecting a product to do well in those tests. Again not saying your tests or videos are invalid or not appreciated, the exact opposite. I just want to say that when you do chemical testing it’s only relevant for chemical resistance, not real world durability.

@CarCraftAutoDetailing 4 года назад

I’d always encourage people go by their own testing and experience with products when making a judgement, because their results are going to differ to others. Just read a few comments on almost any video I’ve made and you’ll see that one person had great performance and durability out of the same product that someone else had poor performance and durability, which is all specific to their own real world performance on their own cars, in their own environment with their own specific prep and application. I believe you when you say that you’re testing has shown that products with superior chemical resistance have had poorer real world durability, but that just couldn’t be more different than my personal experience which has shown a very strong correlation between the two. I appreciate the good civil debate and you make some good valid points, I just think we have two very different experiences which is also fine!

MEGUIAR'S Hybrid Ceramic Wax for $20.05 and Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Liquid Wax:$15.97 and Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Detailer at $15,97 us US pricing and you have pay 40-60 AUD for these when you can get NV Nova Jet, Lustre or Nova boost.

I wonder if the issue with putting the spray variant on a dry surface is, or could be, increased risk of creating more small imperfections in the paint, causing Maguires to recommend against doing it that way.
